i broke up 4 months ago but still can't get rid of him from my mind. relationship is such a weird thing.. when one want to break up, you will think all the bad things about him but when already broke up, you can't stop thinking about his goods... how i wish he could come back to me but just not possible even though when we hang out together, i could still feel something in his heart(may be i think too much). he is not willing to give any chance. "not everyone deserve a second chance" is what he told me...

Poor thing you. Like what ZeratoS said, get your buddies, hang out with them, have chats with them and you know, friends would help friends.

Besides you have us here in LYN smile.gif

Well for the first few weeks I broke up with my ex, it feels totally weird, and I had a numb feeling about everything. I don't know where to go. I feel lonely, being in solitude, and is very very lost. It was also the time where I tried very hard wanted to get back into the relationship, but then as time goes by, I came to learn that even if one day, we reunited, the relationship won't be the same anymore like it used to be. We may have grown into two different individuals and we both are in different worlds already. Sad but true. What ends must end.

The only thing I can tell myself and what dremax mentioned also, appreciate your loved ones while you can. When you only appreciate your loved one when it's already over, it is already very very very late. All I must do is to move on, and shall never repeat the same mistake like I did before again.
*
you are absolutely right. but i still couldnt get out from that dilemma. i m still hoping so much for him to come back. how could i get rid of him from my mind. why is there so many movies about recovering of a relationship after broke up??? in fact life does not take 2...

nlgoh, Life does not have take 2, but Life does have season 2. The ending of season 1 means a new and fresh beginning for season 2. icon_rolleyes.gif

Occupy yourself with more activities and enlarge your circle of friends so that you won't be thinking of him so much. Before you knew it, you have just realized that Life is very meaningful. Be strong and be positive. laugh.gif

I m always strong and tough... only this time... i m so upset, so lost.. because having realize how much i do love him only when i lose him.. but no doubt, I have learnt a lot from my mistake.. thanks a lot

It is something normal, because we have invested so much emotional attachment to our loved one, so it's hard to let go, and it makes you feel very numb and lost.

But as we go through the process of recovering from the relationship, that makes us a wiser and a more matured person on how to deal with a future relationship. Someone have asked me once on how to become more matured in a relationship. Unfortunately, thinking back on the amount of pain I have gone through, I couldn't say much.

how fragile a relationship is... it changes all the time even before we manage to overcome it. tough luck
i saw him yesterday after like 2 weeks didnt contact to each other. i wanted to say something, but i don't know what to say... i wanted to smile, but i just couldn't get rid of my sadness... we were in the same lift, nothing but silence. my heart feel pain everytime i see this situation, i am so angry with my decision. i feel so stupid. i love the song by leona lewis, better in time.. i know i m gonna be ok.. time heals..

Time doesn't heal until your determination to let go.

You are right.. but time will wear off one's determination.. when you come to a point where you can no longer take the pain, and that's where you get enlightenment and will let go..

DreMax, i like to swim when i am upset... you hardly hear anything beside your own breathing, is a good way to release your stress. unfortunately, i got no time to swim recently...

Actually that's what I did ever since my girl left me. Every week when I get home from campus I'll take it down to the pool to swim myself tired. It doesn't only feel better when you can sleep soundly thanks to being tired but also it kinda relieves what's in the head.

Probably we people should have a get-together and have a swim all together tongue.gif

I want to swim... i miss the time swimming alone till tired...

QUOTE(Medufsaid @ Nov 25 2009, 10:19 PM)
Or the easier way is... Time doesn't heal until you found someone better. tongue.gif

I did try to look for a new one. But it is just not the right thing, i ended up hurt more n deep. You need to heal first before starting a new one. Otherwise, it will be unfair for the new one too.

QUOTE(geekster129 @ Nov 25 2009, 10:25 PM)
I took a slightly different strategy. After me and my girl were no longer couples, I took the time to try out things I have never done before in Life, and boy, it's a totally fresh and a great experience.

I don't know, maybe I'll continue to follow this path, and maybe one day I'll find a new GF in the process.

I tried chatting with an open heart with my ex today, and weeded off all the negativities and jealous feelings. I don't know why. It's just feels good. laugh.gif
*
I did try to talk to him, chat with him even went movie with him. But the minute we say goodbye, the feelings ain't good at all.. I had the feeling of being separate again.. I dont't like it. Everytime after that, i need to suffer for a period of time. I did something which i don't normally do, without realising, is actually what my ex loves to do, his hobby.

QUOTE(debbieyss @ Nov 25 2009, 11:17 PM)
It's been a long time i don't swim to tired.

You should do it again..

I think the best to do for normal human is cry and cry and keep hoping him/her to come back.

Mature ppl will realise that he/she glad it happened because imagine the person leave u  on your wedding day or after u have child?
*
i have been crying non stop.. but you know what, is not going to solve any problem. i have slowly learn to face the reality, no one know what is gonna happen in the future. may be he will come back to me, or may be i will get a better one.. but no one deserve to take away my happiness.. i am trying to live happily every second of my life.

I can understand how you feel. It's like that feeling of solitude. Sometimes it happens to me too. Working late at night, and after finish work, getting dinner yourself, sitting in the restaurant alone, man! It sucks, and all the crazy thoughts emerge in your mind.

Worst thing is, at the "so-right" moment of time, so happened that none of your friends can chat with you.
*
sometimes i prefer to cry alone loudly then go to bed. u will have a good sleep after the cry. biggrin.gif
but is not good for health. when i on my msn, lot of friends online, but i've no idea what to chat about. i dont want to start telling my love story. sooner or later, all ur friends will run away from u.

QUOTE(wInnIe PoOh @ Dec 1 2009, 08:14 PM)
my dear, if you do not learn how to love yourself, who will ever care to love you? i do not lie to myself, i told him too that i love him very much and i do not deny any of my feelings. i think, i put it in a way which i choose to face everything instead of running away from it. i missed him, i told him. i loved him, i told him. when now im typing this, i do think of him but i do not think that i have the feeling want to talk to him at the moment, because i have my other work to do. i told myself that, i want to love myself first before i love anyone again. may be in the future i will not love any other guys as how i love him anymore but i can not say it for sure in the future, no matter what, i know the most important thing is, my own happiness.
*
i called him few days back to meet up for a dinner. after the dinner, i couldn't take it finally, i hug him so tight n cry out loud. i told him everything without any hiding. he knew i miss him, he knew i love him, he knew i need him. but i wont force him. i knew he has something to do. if he didnt do it, he will think about it forever even when he start a new relationship. i feel better after the confession.

winnie pooh, ur words inspired me a lot. i will miss him, love him, but i will learn to love myself. wish him happy and fortunate. if he is mine, he will come back to me. if he loves me too, he should know what to do

sometimes it is good to cry it all out then off to bed, but not everyday.
i have a lot of people in msn too but not many that i will chat with, in fact i can say there is none of my friends knows about my break up at all, i also could not imagine how i went through all that alone. i just chat with my friends, topics for me and my friends. sometimes we need a place to release out the sadness within us, but if we keep telling people the sad story, we are only keep reminding ourselves about it and it makes us to be sad.

exactly, i feel sad every time i tell the story. it reminds me a lot. i should have stop sharing n keep within myself.

i am just here to share my experience, this time i know i fell down badly in love because i do really love him that much but sadly it just does not work out. so for me the best will be just leave it as how it is. i hope you will be able to find your happiness too, i believe that if there is one person does not know how to appreciate you, there will be more than a person know how to appreciate you in the future, because everything in this world, has two sides.
*
i have learnt a lot from the mistake.
one of my friend told me that "if i sad for 1 minute, i lose the happiness for 1 minute". I will try my very best to live as happy as i can.
thank you and all the best to you.

do not try, just do it. i believe it will be much better compare to just think only.
i do not know if i do really have very strong determination, but i think i just do not want to waste my time anymore. may be i already went deep down, i guess there is nothing for me to lose anymore other than my precious time in life. i am a stubborn person, i do not surrender and give up easily. i will always fight till i am completely lose but still i will find ways to get up to fight again.

yes, never make the same mistake twice. the last when i talked to him which about more than a week ago, i actually thank him for the time we spent together, and make me realize my mistakes. if he was lucky to be with me, then my future bf/husband will definitely be more lucky than him
*
dear winnie, i just couldn't let go, not that i never try to. i shouldn't just let him off when he try to patch me back. i m self blaming. and now i try to patch him, just within 1 month, he just don't want to give a try anymore. i've been keeping the determination until now. and what i found out now is that, the more i try to patch, the more i get hurt.. deeply hurt...

yes, i read some of your posts and i think our case is pretty much similar. i think in our life, we will always be silly for someone no matter that person appreciate us or not.
i think so, things that come easily will not be appreciated, i think people tends to take things for granted, this is just the nature part of a human being. i do not want to make it so hard for the new candidates but i am now learn to take things slowly step by step. i just need to learn, how to protect myself before i want to commit myself into another relationship.
dear nlgoh, you can let go if you decide to. no one can teach you what to do or help you because it is all about you yourself. you can everyday lie to everyone or even yourself that you have already let go but if you do not be firm with it, you will never be able to let go.

i actually put a note on my table, it serves a purpose to remind myself not to contact him through internet. as for my phone, i purposely remove him from my speed dial, as well from the call list. i changed his name over the contact there, whenever i tried to search, i just remind myself that no and no and no. at first it was so difficult, but i took two days, until without any notes to remind myself anymore, i just do not do that anymore. no doubt i do still think of him sometimes but whenever i go to the places we been before, i just put a smile on face and let the bygone be bygone.

i tried to patch back, thought of giving us a try within a month time but in this 1 month time things did not went well so i just call it off and forget about it. i think it is about ourselves, for me i might sound very experienced and strong but seriously, this is the first time i find it so hard to let go at all. i could not and felt suicidal, now i think back, i am actually lucky that he gave me a great time in life, and i have learnt a lot of things. now i just tell myself, loving some one does not mean to be with the person. i do not place my happiness on anyone else anymore because it is on my hands for me to find out by myself.

my dear, i believe you can get over it soon. try to be positive. if a girl like me who cut on the wrist before, took in pills but could get over it, what makes you think that you can not?
*
i did the same thing. i remove him from facebook so that i wont view his profile again and again. i can view his profile at least 3 times a day for no reason. i remove his contact from my phone too. yes, i don't think about him as often as before. but i met up with him after 2 weeks of lost contact. things couldnt work well, i lost control on that day. but feel better after the confession to him. what i need now is, time. sticking with the view that what is mine, will come back to me eventually...

i did not remove him from fb and msn, he knows my updates too but i am not too sure if he paid any attention to it or not. we had a short conversation the other day, he asked about me and i was very surprised with that, i just remained cool to end the conversation with him happily. i think, i just want to take everything slowly. there are guys after me too now but some of them really turn me off immediately with their pushie actions.
*
We had a conversation last 2 weeks, he knew i removed him from my fb. He did update himself by viewing my fb. I need to get myself out from hoping & addicted in viewing his profile, so i decided to remove him. But i asked him can i add him again? He said yes only when i'd move on. But until now i haven't decided to add him again. There are guys after me now, but i know if i accept them, they are merely my rebound bf because i haven't let go my ex. It would be so unfair to them. I feel much better nowaday.. as compared to 3 months ago.. Thanks to all mates that encourages me.. wub.gif

we met up today, but in a group. throughout the few hours, i notice he was keeping an eye on me and he tried to talk to me too. of course i react normal towards everything. i had great fun with my friends, i notice he looked at me when i laugh and when i was talking to others. i thought i might react differently but i do not know why i enjoyed myself during the outing. i do not intend to pretend but i do not know why, i think i am feeling much better and really willing to let go.

at the moment, i will not deny that i have quite many guys after me. i am not too sure what do i want. so i just remain as friends with them, furthermore i prefer to really overcome myself for everything before i start a new relationship with any other guys. i do not want to be unfair for anyone else and at the end, i will only get extra hurts.

sounds cool... i wont be meeting up with him that often.. but if we happen to meet up, i think i will be like u too... just act normal.. i m great now.. i think i'd let go.. thumbup.gif

Today I saw my ex-GF's Facebook page and her relationship status has changed to "In a relationship with XXX..."

I skimmed through her BF's wall, lots of postings from him stating how much he loves her. Everyone gave a lot of positive remarks on his Facebook wall. smile.gif

This time, tears were rolling down my eyes... not because I'm feeling sad... because I'm touched. I'm glad she found someone who can give her happiness, and I'll pray that both of them will be a loving couple forever. smile.gif

I just don't know why this time I got such a big courage to let her go for a better.

i think i just do not want him to think that i am wanting something more than a friend. i know he has that thought about me since we broke up because i was quite dependent on him last time as i could not let go of him. i just do not want him to feel that i am irritating and disturbing, and most important, he tries his way to avoid me.
yes, i will just give it to him and may be have a talk with him regarding about something in between me and him. or may be i will choose not to but anyhow i just do not want to think anything extra anymore.

I thought of buying him a x'mas gift too. But having the same thought as u, and all my friends said i should not. i personally think no harm to give a x'mas gift to someone special.

Dremax, it is good to see you feel better. Sometimes, do not hope but just do it. I wasted a month time to hope that the relation in between me and him could get better; I wasted a month time to hope for a miracle to happen but whatever it is, I know it is all depends on myself what I actually want to do, and what I can do.

A change must come from one before the other, but it is you yourself to decide if you want to change. I did nothing but to pour out all my thoughts here to share with people. There are people think it is nonsense but it might be useful for certain people. It is depending on you, when you feel like taking it to place it at the useful side.

You've already fallen down, perhaps deep down. You've already suffer from the pain, perhaps deep pain. Is this the time for you to stand up, it is all depends on you. Standing up might be painful too but since you are already in  deep pain after a fall, so why is there to bother if it's painful to stand up? After all, apply the right medicine for your wound, you will be able to run like no body's business again. smile.gif

I can see how silly you are in relationship. No money no talk? Then why you are here to talk? See, relationship is relationship; money is money. No doubt we need money in everything but it does not mean money can buy a relationship. There are silly people out there to go for monetary but are they really serious and commit into relationship? You can get the answer by yourself.

Anyone who is serious to carry on a relationship with you, will not look into money first but your personality and as well the chemical reaction. If you've got cheated by a girl before, that's your sad story and I feel sorry for that, but it does not mean all girls after you are for money.

For me, money is nothing compare to a true love.

absolutely agreed with that.

i went out with my ex too.. everythings seem fine. seems like both dremax n winnie really move on well.. 3 cheers to us.. hooray, hooray, hooray..

nlgoh, so how was the meet up? I think I am quite happy and also enjoy my life for now. Honestly if now ask me again if I will want to be with him again or not, I will answer straight off the face, NO! He called and we had a talk, he was surprised with my current progress at work and career but I did not bother much. He seems to pretend to forget the things he left with me on the other day, and now I just want to get rid of it because I do not want extra thigns in my room but not having the intention to meet him more often anymore!
*
Winnie, my meeting wasn't really good one. It was good for the first meet up. Then subsequently we met up again. It was yesterday. We had dinner. Then suddenly we went into the issue of guys tackling me. I told him i accepted one, but then realising it doesnt work, it hurts me deeply as i havent get over him. He was upset about it because i simply accept guy that i don't like. He was rush in time, so we didnt talk much.

But later he came to my house at 11 something, we talked until 3.30am. We ended up with hugs n kiss. This morning i meet up with him again. I am so confused, things become more complicated now. He is now going after another girl, but he told me he still not yet fully let go. I feel so so so wrong. I am suddenly a third party now.

I know i should stop everything, but i cant let go. Knowing we like each other, yet we cant be together. We broke up because i am choosing btw 2 guys. He is now in the dilemma of what i was having last time. Furthermore, he put too much effort in the new girl. Me alone hurting better than 3 person get hurt at the end. But can i do it??

My dear, it happened the same like mine too but the only difference is, he is not after any other girl and I have not accept any of the guys tackling me. I can understand how you feel. The kisses and hugs feeling so lovely and warm right?

Anyway, I have not come over here to check out in this after my last post. I was busy but I think I could make it to the extend of not to think about him at all for at least a week. I am sure you can do it too if you want to. I am not too sure about you and him, but for me it was something that I felt it will not work it out that well anymore. We had already broke up, within the two to three months time again we patch back. It shows to me that it might not be a good decision. So I just want a long break and who knows I might be able to get someone that I really wanted or may be after a rest, we can work things out better.

I will not deny after the broke up, I was hoping for a patch back and I was so silly that I still willingly to sacrifice for him. Sadly, I've awaken from the dream that is not realistic at all.

It is not appropriate for me to tell you what to do, perhaps you will be the better person? I will suggest you to leave everything off here, and take a break to a place you want to go the most. To the beach or anywhere else then enjoy yourself there. Off the handphone and turn off internet or whatever communication tool, may be you will be able to get your answer. I did that, and it works on me smile.gif
*
I cant stop myself from crying the moment he hug me tightly. Its been 7 months we broke up, things seem just happened, it's still so fresh in my mind. I've told him to hang out as friends, follow what his heart say. If he really more comfortable with the girl, go ahead. Btw, he will only meet up with the girl in the end of Jan 2010. He bought the ticket flew there just to celebrate her birthday. Touching right...

I did try to leave, somewhere away from city, no communication at all. I feel happy that week, but when i come back, things just doesn't work out. Running away or escaping the fact doesn't work.
